Paris has the Eiffel Tower; New York has the Empire State Building; in Rotterdam it's the Erasmus bridge. Its structural scale and design articulation has become a distinctive landmark within the surrounding skyline. This cable-stay bridge links the northern and southern parts of the city with a 802 m span in spectacular style. The bridge deck is supported by steel cables slung over a single pylon that is bent to counter the forces of tension. Traffic passes underneath the 139 m pylon as it straddles the roadway. The structure is called "the Swan" by locals because of its graceful posture over the water. The Erasmus Bridge is such a dramatic departure in bridge building that it has even become part of the city's official logo. The top part of pylon of the bridge is reachable through an internal staircase.

Erasmus Bridge landings
Rising to a height of 139 m and spanning a width of 802 m, the bridge over the River Maas is a landmark for Rotterdam. The eye-catching steel asymmetric pylon is not the only interesting thing on this bridge: its concrete, slowly rising unusual formed landings are quite as impressive. Solidly anchored to the north shore the road to Erasmus Bridge is not only quite narrow, but built on a slight incline, reducing the structure's apparent heaviness and giving it a slender, light appearance. On top are two sidewalks, two cycle tracks, tram rails and two vehicle carriageways. Constructed to facilitate the orchestration of traffic flows, the sweeping concrete staircases of the bridge lead up from the parking garage on the north side, extending the curve of the main ramp to pedestrian level and turning the bridge into something of a public space in the sky. Underneath the traffic deck, there?s a shop, restaurant, bar and underground parking, all part of the same construction.

교량 이름의 에라스무스(Desiderius Erasmus / 1466.10.27~1536.7.12)는 로테르담(Rotterdam) 출신의 르네상스 시대의 네덜란드 인문주의자이며, 에라스무스-橋 부근에는 에라스무스 대학이 자리잡고 있다. 다리는 로테르담-市 뉴마스-江의 남단과 북단을 연결하고 있으며, 지리적, 상업적으로 매우 중요한 곳으로 꾸준히 도시계획개발이 이루어지고 있는 상황이다.

실험을 주목적으로 하는 건물이라서 내부는 완전히 차단되어 있다. 외부마감밖엔 알 수가 없어서 더더욱 궁금증만 증폭된다.

The small pavilion-like laboratory building for the NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) Facility is located on the Uithof Campus of Utrecht University. The two-floor column free laboratory houses eight spectrometers (high-frequency magnets). This influenced decisively the spatial layout of the building, because the radiate force fields these magnets produce may not be disturbed. The building consists of a single concrete surface, which continues from floor plane into the wall and ceiling. The flipping-over surfaces are constructive and are thus not traversed by a secondary support structure of columns. Windows with integrated sun shading, a silk-screened dot pattern, are placed in office- and laboratory spaces, allowing daylight to enter.

Living Tomorrow is a temporary building. The project gives an insight in the most innovative technologies that could be integrated in future daily life and working environments. The aim to be the most innovative means that five years after the opening, the building will be demolished. It is expected that in 2007 all things exhibited and integrated in the building will be out of date and probably already part of the daily life. In the pavilion visitors can get acquainted with the products and services, which can enhance the quality of living or working in the near future. On the ground floor the entrance, auditorium, event hall, exhibition room, administration and kitchen are located. On the four levels above, more exhibition rooms, a small restaurant and other secondary facilities are situated.

Underneath the Rotterdam Erasmus Bridge several special functions have their offices and meeting spaces. On the north shore, under and next to the slightly inclining road the Spido Harbour Tours holds its ticket office. The eye-catching steel asymmetric pylon is not the only interesting thing on the Rotterdam landmark, this bridge has very remarkable concrete, slowly rising unusual formed landings. From here you can take harbour trips and daytours through the Rotterdam Harbour, ideal to get to know one of the world's largest international ports.
